Is the bag water proof? That is will it protect my valuables if I get caught in the rain?

I would not get stuck in the rain with it. A light sprinkle would get the small top compartment wet. All I keep in there is a sling strap anyways. Anything heavier would probably get into the main camera compartment.

It is not labeled as waterproof, but I was in and out of a constant drizzle with my camera in this bag and it stayed dry inside

You know I can tell you it's that vinyl like polyester material I think a small amount of rain it would do fine. It's thick so you would be able to take cover before it soaked through. But by company made standards I don't think it's listed as waterproof. The zip areas would be the first place water may leak.

The outside is canvas so it is water repellent to a point. The inside liner is nylon on the outside and a soft clothe on the inside. Throwing it in a lake or being stuck outside more than 10 minutes in a down pour could allow water in. I never trust anything that says water proof so I always bring individual plastic bags for camera, lens etc. if there is any chance of moisture. It also helps to bring a small soft towel. Have not been in any rain or water rides with this.Still, for the price it is an awesome bag.

No this bag is not waterproof. The seams have a small strip of durable fabric in the stitching for strength and there is a fabric zipper so it isn't waterproof. Because it is mostly vinyl, you could call it "splash resistant" but that's as far as I'd go.

Yes the outside is waterproof, I've been caught inthe rain numberous occasions,and nothing inside ever got wet. It's a great bag, I love mine, hope this helps.

Good question since I was carrying it in the rain today. The large compartment closeset to your back has a different material on the inside that would resist water pretty well except in drenching conditions. The outer material of the pack is a tough, but not waterproof, denier material. It get's damp with exposure to rain but I haven't had it soak through yet. If you're concerned about getting contents wet I'd recommend ziploc bags or small / medium sil nylon stuff sacks for contents.

Yes, the entire case is water resisted, there is a zipper so some water may get in under very hard rain but so far so good. GREAT BAG

No it is not water proof. You could put it in a zip lock bag to protect it.

If I walk in the rain with the bag for a while, it is not a problem at all. But if you soak it in water, I am sure it will leak somewhere. I am very happy with the bag, good quality.

The bags are water resistant, but not completely water proof. We have not had anything get wet in the bag as of yet.

I would not say that it is water proof...But it will hold up against a good rain for a couple of hours. There might be some stuff that gets a little wet but all your stuff will not be soaked

No, I don't think so. If you want water proof, you need to have the bag you put this in be waterproof.

This bag is water proof. I used it on boating trips and all stayed dry inside

I'd say it's resistant but not water proof. I've taken it out in the pouring rain and everything inside has stayed dry, but I'd be afraid to drench it just in case.

This bag, like many others, is not waterproof. However, I just sprayed a water proof sealant on it and it has kept my stuff dry in a downpour. If you want even more protection you could buy a rain cover for it. See my review for more information.

No, it does not appear to be water resistant. I would put it in a zip-lock bag for extra protection if you plan on traveling in a wet area.

Its not built to be water proof. It is slightly resistant to water, especially if you scotch guard the bag before first use. The fabric seems to be quite resilient to wear and tear. I have used mine for almost a year now and no wear marks or holes are evident. Hope this helps.
